Travel tips
Take advantage of the complimentary airport shuttle if flying into Huntsville International Airport, since the hotel is only about a 5-minute drive away. Because major attractions like the U.S. Space and Rocket Center, Space Camp, and downtown Huntsville sites are 7-11 miles out, plan on a short drive or shuttle arrangement to reach them, and factor in extra time for the farther downtown museums and parks, which sit 15-17 km away.
